Re: LF: Re: 136 kHz in TN

Actually, I came up with a rather simple solution. I have an extra computer in the basement that I think I will bring upstairs and press into service as a "radio computer". I'll keep the clock on that one set to UTC, so all loggings will bear the UTC time stamp. I'll just need to buy a cheap sound card for it, as, if I remember correctly, it has no onboard sound.

Mal,

 

Thanks for the welcome and the information. I took a quick look at ARGO and it seems to get it's time stamp from whatever the computer clock is set to, which happens to be EST for me (UTC -5). I did not see a way to change it in ARGO without changing the main computer clock to UTC, so I'll just do the conversion myself and report it in the text portion of any future receptions. :-)

Hi Doug

I hope you are enjoying the LF activity on 136 Khz.

Tnx for the report from Tennessee. My location is Scarborough, East coast England - IO94SH. Distance between us is 6318 K/metres

If you need any more info let me know

I was transmitting QRSS 30 and listening on 7033 Khz for any xband calls for a QSO

Because of so many time zones to the East es West of me maybe UTC time reporting would be better if possible. Not sure what the time difference is between UTC es EST

73 es GL and agn tnx hpe to hear from u agn soon

Hello all. I just joined this reflector and thought I would post last night's TA reception of DK7FC and G3KEV. Time stamps on ARGO are in Eastern Standard Time.

 

Nice signals here in Tennessee, guys.
